If you have an Apple store near you take it to them. I have heard of people bitching enough they they replaced it with a new one.

Apple hardware is now and always has been garbage. Nice design, cute OS, shitty hardware. Fuck Apple.

That's disappointing to hear, especially since Ipod is all the rage.

90 days, or at least it was last year I can't see them changing it. Rule of thumb on electronics is the warrenty is 90 days. And that's with dealing w/ the manufacturer. That's the reason why Best Buy / Circuit City, are so big on their own warreties witch they pretty much suck ass as well, totally not worth it on most items.

Your warrenty should cover battery replacement. Mine covers any battery changes needed for three years free of any charge.

Also, you can send it back to Apple, and for 50 or so bucks they'll replace the battery for you

Just out of curiosity, do you charge your iPod in your car while you are driving?

They say it's not good to charge iPod's (or cell phones) in the car while driving . It messes up the battery because the power fluctuates when you hit the gas, hit the breaks, turn on the AC etc as opposed to the wall socket that is feeding it a steady current.

I dont know about that. My cell battery never dies. It takes a good week or about 3 days of solid use for me to need to charge it.

It all depends on how you charge while in the car. I've got a heavy duty mounted inverter setup with a built in line cleaner so it doesn't have spikes in power supplies. It set me back $200 though, so I'm not certain if that is the most viable option for most people.

Mine is one of the ones that you plug in that lets you play songs through the radio, an fm transmitter or whatever. Charges too and works good /shrug

I have an aux in plug in my car so I just plug my ipod directly into that. Doesn't charge it though, I have to use a regular wall mount for that. I have a 20GB version that came out right before the video ipods. Works pretty well.

hell the only reason I bought an iPod was so I didnt have to fuck with CDs anymore. I almost never even take it out of the truck
